About this book 4About this bookEquipment and illustrationsTh i s b o o k d e s c r i b e s t h e equipment range specified for this model at
the editorial deadline date as indicated on the inside of the back

time of printing or may only be offered in certain countries.
Th e illustrations are designed as schematic images. Some of the
details on your vehicle may therefore look slightly different than
illustrated in this manual.Structure of the bookThe contents are systematically structured in a color-coded layout
to make it easier to locate specific topics and understand them.Chapters, Table of Contents and IndexThe contents of the book are divided into relatively small sections
that are summarized in clearly arranged chapters (e.g. “System
Operation”). To make it easier to use the book, we have identified
the individual chapters with the color codes from the Audi Naviga-
tion System. Each color code is shown in the bottom margin of the
chapter as well as in the headings and illustrations.
In front of each chapter, icons shaded with the background color
code of that specific section help to make the book more attractive
and also serve to differentiate the fonts and facilitate navigation.
Th e Table of Contents, organized into chapters, and the detailed
Index a t t h e e n d o f t h e b o o k h e l p y o u to qu ick ly fin d t h e i n fo rm a t i o n
you need.SectionsThe information in most sections apply to all vehicles. However,
since the equipment level is not the same on all vehicles, this book
also contains sections which may not apply to your particular
vehicle. When this is the case, the section will be identified, for example: “Applies to vehicles: with Audi cd changer”. This way, you
only have to read the sections which are applicable to your vehicle.
Although the information has been grouped into the appropriate
sections, there are many possible equipment combinations which
may be described in this book, but not installed on your vehicle.
